I changed my mind

Last week I published a short piece about, Edward Goscinski, the husband of a woman injured in a Liberty County traffic accident March 19 who was looking for one of the two dogs who were traveling with her when the accident occurred.

The woman’s SUV flipped several times and caught fire. She ended up in Memorial University Medical Center in critical but stable condition.

Bailey, a blond, male, Cocker Spaniel was missing after the accident.

The piece was posted on our web site and by March 29 had been viewed more than 2,500 times.

A few people posted comments.

“I am a dog lover and I hope you find him. I can imagine if something happened to my … . My prayers are with you,” one said.

Another commented, “Let’s all pray for Bailey’s safe return … .”

If you read all the comments you’d see they were fairly similar, people voicing their thoughts and concerns about a lost dog.

What I started to say here was something about how all the comments were about the dog, none about the injured woman and then comment about that, but I changed my mind.

For some reason, just as I was about to click the button that would post this, I decided to call Goscinski.

He told me Bailey had been found. But that the dog had died, apparently from injuries sustained in the accident.

His wife is still in Memorial, still in critical but stable condition, but improving he said.
